Just a girl trying to find her way, and finding th(in)spiration. - Page 2

Rebecca1979 · 07-16-2010, 07:50 PM

Checked my BS at the restaurant and it was 125! Pretty good! My sugars after were 151.

I had a big ice water with lemon, perfectly grilled tilapia, green beans, and a garden salad with blue cheese!

I was extremely happy with my meal and I feel satisfied!

kristina · 07-16-2010, 07:54 PM

It's going down, bit by bit

Rebecca1979 · 07-16-2010, 07:57 PM

It's gone down with me doing the lC woe for 2 or 3 days!

brandyxoxo25 · 07-16-2010, 08:16 PM

Rebecca, I will be following your progress! You are doing such a great job so far! I have the exact same problem as you with my blood sugars. If you find that you are unable to regulate them with diet alone, you might look into insulin. I know that sounds scary, but it is the easiest way to regulate your sugars, and you dont have to have a prescription to buy it. Without a DR though, you will have to do a lot of research to find out a good starting point for injections though. Anyway, just a thought. Again, I will be watching to see you turn back into the girl in that picture!!

Rebecca1979 · 07-16-2010, 08:34 PM

Thank you Brandy! I totally agree with you! I've only been eating like I'm supposed to for a couple days.. It looks like it might work for me, but if in a week I just can't get it down I will definitely go to the Dr. Don't you worry! I am not playing around with this disease!

brandyxoxo25 · 07-16-2010, 08:45 PM

Well, be very proud of yourself for taking control!!

Side note: I

Rebecca1979 · 07-16-2010, 08:51 PM

Me too!!!

Rebecca1979 · 07-17-2010, 09:41 AM

Ok I woke up this morning with a BS of 178! I think the green beans poisoned me! Maybe some hidden flour! GRRRR well i'm eating very clean at home soo I'm not going to worry about it.

Rebecca1979 · 07-17-2010, 09:42 AM

I need to figure out how to store some cucumbers I just bought! Should I slice them and keep them in a ziplock container or what?! I dunno!

Rebecca1979 · 07-17-2010, 10:46 AM

Just took my bs again and it's 153... Getting that crap outta my system!

Rebecca1979 · 07-17-2010, 12:20 PM

I need to figure out a menu! I went to make my son and hubby something for lunch and it was slim pickin'.. I mindlessly eat the same stuff eggs, sting cheese, jello, hot dogs, and that won't fly with the others! =D

Rebecca1979 · 07-17-2010, 03:58 PM

Had a wonderful dinner of cubed tri tip steak and grilled onions.I topped it with a bit of sour cream! SuPeR SuPpEr!!

YummY.

Rebecca1979 · 07-17-2010, 08:33 PM

My after dinner BS was 136!!! WOOT! =D I went to walmart and got more LC appropriate foods, and a spiffy new Atkins' book! I'm gonna go read it for the rest of the night and take notes! I am soo happy!

Rebecca1979 · 07-17-2010, 09:12 PM

I also talked to my sister on the phone and told her that I wasn't LCing to lose weight. It's to control my blood sugar. I feel better and since I got my new book (couldn't find my original) I can eat as clean as possible! I just want to get to one day were the way I just eat, are natural. Not something to stress over. I haven't stressed really, but I am afraid to go out to eat.

Meek75 · 07-18-2010, 09:22 AM

Hi Rebecca. I'm here to cheer you on

.

Rebecca1979 · 07-18-2010, 10:05 AM

Thanks Meek!

My BS was good this morning! My mama is coming over today.. It will be a lazy day of reading my Atkins' book and just hanging out!

=-D

Meek75 · 07-18-2010, 10:46 AM

I'm so glad your BS was good this morning. Enjoy hanging out w/family and reading your Atkins' book

Rebecca1979 · 07-18-2010, 01:48 PM

I just made hamburger patties and fried squash. Delish!

Meek75 · 07-18-2010, 03:13 PM

Sounds yummy! I have yet to try squash...but I cook it all the time for my husband.

Rebecca1979 · 07-18-2010, 04:51 PM

I meant Fried Cabbage!! I don't know what I was thinking LOL

I LOVE Fried Squash (it's actually sauteed not coated deep fried)

It's very easy to make =D

Rebecca1979 · 07-18-2010, 06:02 PM

I am seriously thinking of starting Oil Pulling! Gonna Research it

Rebecca1979 · 07-19-2010, 06:55 AM

I woke up to see that the scale said 252. Pretty Amazing! =D My bs was 135 (pretty happy about that). I woke up at 6:30 on my own! Now I need a nap LOL! I can hardly keep my eyes open!

I think I'll go stare at the back of my eyelids for a while!

Meek75 · 07-19-2010, 07:32 AM

- scale -

bs!!

You are doing great!

Rebecca1979 · 07-19-2010, 02:54 PM

Gonna make some pizza and share a good meal with my family!

This is also day #2 of a headache! =(

jamistar77 · 07-19-2010, 05:32 PM

Hi Rebecca! I saw you on the pizza crust thread and saw the link for your journal, so of course I had to check it out!!
I hate waking up that early.. My internal alarm clock goes off at 634 almost everyday.. UGH. So annoying. I normally have to get up at 420 for work, so I guess its a sleep in for me.
Bummer about your headache! I hope it goes away soon, that is exhausting in itself!

Rebecca1979 · 07-19-2010, 05:34 PM

Thank you Jami!!! I appreciate your visit!

Rebecca1979 · 07-20-2010, 09:33 AM

WOOT!!!

Guess who is 251 today? MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE =-D

Feeling really good and my BS is 132!!!

I need to change my stats to 251.

The only problem (which it's not even a problem really) is I am a bit over whelmed with what to cook.. It's my fault I need to suck it up and plan a menu, but I haven't!

I think I'll work on that now! This website has no clue how much help and support it's been. I thank God everyday for LCF.

Meek75 · 07-20-2010, 11:38 AM

GO GO GO!!!

Rebecca1979 · 07-20-2010, 05:31 PM

Dinner was great, now I have more planning to do.

I am watching Hell's Kitchen and it's making my nerves bad. Geez.
